I've stood where this camera is many times and... the sounds in that place are just fantastic. The sound from the furnace changes like a movement of a symphony of thousands of lightning bolts hitting a thousand tympani per second. It vibrates the body.
I always wondered how they got rid of all the other crap that's in cars like glass, foam, plastic etc. I learned they shred the car and magnetically get the steel out and the non magnetic metals are fed out into another stream called zorba, and the rest of it is auto shreader residue. I used to think they just threw the car in the furnace and all the crap floated to the top.
I used to haul scrap into the steel mills and it always was so great to watch them melt it down. Steel mills are either freezing cold or hotter than hell
How about just a bit of dialogue? I mean, maybe tell us something? We came here to be educated. Great effort with the filming but just maybe explain what is happening and why?
Scrap is screened for radioactives in the yard. It's crudely dumped in a furnace lined with refractory bricks and water cooling pipes. Lid closes and two carbon telephone pole-sized electrodes are dipped in there. Flip the power on and all hell breaks loose. After a ...seems like it's liquidy in about 20 minutes. They might add more scrap as it melts down. A guy lookin' like an astronaut uses a long stick to retrieve a sample for the lab to check chemistry. Rust and impurities float and are separated while draining the furnace into another giant container called a ladle. HUGE and MASSIVE bowl. Metals are added for the right grade of steel. Then it's pressed into billets like a pasta maker. Giant square bars of steel. That is further recycled to stuff like rebar for low grade steel. Rebar is often straight from the recycling plant. The billets might also go to another specialty steel manufacturer who makes galvanized or other steel products. A steel mill is a dirty loud and dangerous job but I would take it for the awesome sound alone. And the pay used to be awesome.
OK, fine...Without the dialogue, how is everything separated, impurities and slag blown out in preparation for the raw iron ingots to be melted and mixed with the remaining components to make new steel?
See my comments. Also this vid shows a newish melt shop (the floor with the furnace and all the melting fun). ruclips.net/video/8J3bMtX9Wqo/видео.html When those oak-tree-trunk-sized carbon electrodes are spent -- and they get shorter like used pencils -- they merely wrap a chain around it and pull it out like a thorn then crane it to a cement area on that same floor and lay it down. like you'd fish something from a tree with your fishing rod. It's so hot it eventually breaks down the cement.
Doesn't seem like you're supposed to have a comprehensive understanding after watching this video. It's more of a visual and audio experience supplied by the act of recycling metal. Canada in the 90's

Sounds like a warzone to me
Any moment a protagonist and villain are gonna crash through the walls and have their final battle.

Me too
Lol

I love metal because it always exists, just keep melting and reforming, we should never run out of it.
True as a welder if i accidentally burn a hole just add more metal until it fills back up
@@emilianoperez7977Literally same, dude!
this remind me the movie Terminator
i like watching old videos like this.
Damn, its like a scene right out of Terminator 2.
I literally saw how dude inside the furnace was saying something like "I"ll be back!"
Lol
I don't know why any minute I'm expecting to see Arnie and the T-1000 do battle!

How bout go google it instead asswipe

All "hell" broke loose
1:35 are they conjuring a demon?
THAT'S HOT!
Educational.
wow big one . maybe i would start will smaller machine :)
Tina Keeper the director was also an actor on North of sixty . good job Tina
although I gave the video a thumbs-up I do feel you should have added commentary
Narration would've been nice.

Nice
With all the fire why don't they just have a weenie roast and do s'mores at the same time
How do they filter out the impurities?
not a word spoken? good and bad, one thing has to be explained is how to separate different metal content in the lava
steel is quite simply separated before hand using magnets
yep... Learned absolutely nothing from this video.
Sho'Nuff, The Showgun of Harlem 💩😈✋😭

interesting
what keeps it ablaze? Nat gas? Coal?
steel is recycled through electric furnace, the one I've visited was about 60 MW power and 6/7 cubic meters of steel volume production
This was too much heat for the T-1000
How much electricity this uses?
I saw like 1 person in this factory
Can I pay somebody to let me drop some steel parts directly into the melting bowl?
wow
Epic
Illuminati maaan
This is what happens to the bolts that I recycled.
I don't want to see that electric bill ......
Now I know why you cry
The benefit metals have over carbon fiber.
Looks like Mordor
Electric arc furnacing and later cooling and de-scaling the steel... this video would be improved by a commentary...

It's a draw your own conclusions video!
This how you can make iron suit
Well.....whoopie.........Would have liked a little bit more information on the process.
does it creates pollution?
Aly Aly, it's supposed to reduce pollution
Aly Aly Why do you think most steel production is in China?
They use the illuminati eye in their logo and on their page they have some sort of owl artwork, also illuminati symbolism. Weird. Cool video though.
+acejenkins80
What does it mean?
Athena was symbolised by her owl Bubo
its not a eye .its a human figure with there arms over there head and hands together
Kaha ka compni.ha I
Huh???
Yeet
No explanations, what a waste of time!
baler,shear,shredder for scrap metal
WTF
How can 56447 persons have pressed "like" on this video?
Omg metal machine have taking over humans jobs we must stop this at once!
It takes a lot of human jobs to make, maintain, fix, and operate those machines.
